I am somewhat confused, as a practical matter I would like to know what can the problem be should anyone park or run off the hard surface or the paved surface and find himself possibly in soft sand "and gravel which would be an impossibi- lity to drive out of back to the hard surface since I feel the cars would bog down unless they were four•wheel drive. I can also see the risk that could be involved for someone to drive on the road and unbeknown to him that the shoulders of the road were made up of sand and gravel for the purpose intended (drainage) and he could very easily lose control of the car should he hit a soft spot and this can be hazardous . I saw Alden Young and he discussed this plan with me at length. I understand there is also the problem of the maintenance. of this drainage swale and this supposedly may be placed on the owners of the lots adjoining the drainage area. This , of course, becomes another problem. What is the liability to the owner of that plot facing on that road or street and does he have to carry insurance to cover himself? Does this portion of the road remain undedicated? Who does the snow plowing and maintenance of the hard top portion of the road? It would appear to me this type of a road system would be very involved and I am sure it could mean many problems to the town in which these roads are built. ACREAGE BUSINESS LOTS APPRAISALS FARMS s -2- I wish to state my case in reference to the 81 acres I have in mind to sell off as ranchettes varying in size from a minimum of 4,000 sq. ft. to a possibility of 200,000 sq. ft. The idea being that I would want a road built through the entire parcel and then offer the ranchettes for sale which would vary in size according to the customer' s needs. This would not necessarily be a sub-division as such. It would be only sold and parcelled off as miniature farms or ranches, and this is where my problem arises as to. what type of a road and drainage I would need to satisfy the town. Is it possible for me to set up an appointment to meet before you and the board and discuss this in further detail, at your convenience? Your early reply will be greatly appreciated.

The pur- pose here will be to comply with a plan as being sugg- ested by John Klein, to maintain more agricultural land . The purchasers of these ranchettes will be .interested in the various phases of agricultural activity . I realize there may have`" to be roads developed for access and poss- ibly drainage . What would thr requirement be in your township, as to the type of road that would be accepted, in the dedication? What would be the width of the ELght- away.,,,__tpg and width of pa�v�iliX equired. I would assume that curbing would not be necessary, as this would destroy the rural effect . Your early reply will be sincerely appreciated.
